composite steel concrete composite floor used mainly in the commercial and office building has lighter weight and is considered very economical. the light weight natures of this type of floor causes some vibration problems when it is subjected to loadings such as human footstep loading. the dynamic characteristics of these floors are dependent on several parameters such as joist span, girder sp...

In this study, the interaction between the silica filler and polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) was investigated from the aspects of the bound rubber and morphological characterization. With special attention to the dynamic properties, the dynamic test was conducted by dynamic shear rheometer. The results show that the modified fillers disperse uniformly within PDMS matrix without aggregation and con...

resilient modulus of pavement materials is a key property required for the pavement thickness design. this paper describes the results of an experimental study on the effects of temperature and loading frequency on the resilient modulus of a sbs polymer modified asphalt concrete under dry and saturated conditions. dynamic creep tests were conducted on dry and saturated specimens of the mixture ...

We present the load-calculus, used to model dynamic loading, and prove it sound. The calculus extends the polymorphic λ-calculus with a load primitive that dynamically loads terms that are closed, with respect to values. The calculus is meant to approximate the process of dynamic loading in TAL/Load [4], an version of Typed Assembly Language [7] extending with dynamic linking. To model the key ...

The dynamic network equilibrium models have a renewed interest in Europe, Japan and North America. This is due to the design and implementation of Advanced Transport Telematic (ATT) systems require of network models which may evaluate dynamically such actions. The main modeling approaches for the dynamic network equilibrium are: Aggregated macroscopic models in which traffic flows are regarded ...

The ability to dynamically redefine the computational base of a processor is seen as a possible approach to improving the processor's performance. Provision of a facility to allow dynamic linking and loading of microprograms is considered as a practical means of accomplishing this modification. The feasibility and the desirability of this approach is evaluated in terms of the implementation ove...
